Title: Enhanced phone call context information
Inventor: VANDER VEEN RAYMOND PAUL
IPC: H04M1/72451
Filed: 2008-12-18
Abstract: While participating in a telephone call, a communication device displays information relating to the other party to the call, thereby providing a context for the call. In particular, a microprocessor executes a context module to perform a lookup in a database for data items related to a party to the call.  The microprocessor then arranges the presentation references to some of the data items found in the databases on the display of the communication device. The data items references to which are presented on the display may include: Past Appointments, i.e., recent meetings associated with the contact;    Future Appointments, i.e., upcoming meetings associated with the contact;  and Messages, i.e., e-mail messages, SMS messages and Instant Messaging messages both to and from the contact.
